A Feuerwehr-Ehrenzeichen 2. Stufe by Glaser & Sohn of Dresden. Instituted December 22, 1936, the 2nd Class Fire Brigade Cross was awarded to Volunteer Fire Brigade members who had completed 25 years faithful service in the Fire Service. It is constructed out of a two-piece of die stamped nickel-silver base that has been silver washed and contains red, white and black enamel work. The obverse features a centrally placed black mobile on a white and black bordered round backing soldered to a Greek style cross that has red flames emanating out of each arm on a white background with a quarter circle going through each arm that, in total, reads: “Für Verdienste Im Feuerlöschwesen” (For Merit in the Fire Brigade). The full back reverse is maker marked: “Glaser u. Sohn Dresden”. To the top is a soldered-on ball loop and ring, which holds 5 1/4 inches of white, red and purple rayon ribbon. It measures 1 11/16 inches wide. Rare to find these maker marked!
